I was a little scared because even though the rule is "Don't put all your eggs in one basket." I completely disregarded that information and did it anyway. It came in the big envelope but it was still a little scary. Everything is good now and I am going to sign up for my arrival date today. I am aiming for the 12th. anyone else looking at that date?

I don't start taking finals until May 12th. Do they allow an end of month begin date or should I start making preparations to take all my finals early?

so funny story i got a package notice from my school mail room that listed my package as being multicolored and small. i got extremely excited thinking it was the Disney packet nice and early. All it was is a popcorn sample i had done for free earlier on. That was extremely annoying.

Well any one want to tell me what the package looks like, how big it is, and things like that.

The envelope is pretty big. It's not one of the standard small envelopes, but bigger then a manilla envelope (and it has a big purple folder inside).

I am so antsy waiting for my letter! What is the real rejection rate? I hear If you sound enthused, smile, and are not too picky with your choices you are pretty much in. I have excellent work expierence and I applied for attractions and qsfb. Do you think my chances are pretty decent?

Thanks for the info! Has anyone ever done vacation planner? That was my first choice, followed by attractions and transportation. I think I applied for 8 roles total though. I am also curious about the rejection rate.

Typically in the past it seemed that most people got in but for this session there are a bit more people not getting accepted. No one is sure why but if you are flexible as possible you have a higher chance getting in. But don't say you'll do a role if you really don't want to do it, b/c chances are you will get that one. Good Luck everyone! I know you all will do well remember to smile during your interview!

I just got my purple folder a couple days ago!!! It took about 4 weeks so don't worry, it may take a while to hear. My friend still hasn't gotten hers yet and she applied at the end of January with me.

Feels like a giant weight lifted off your shoulders doesn't it?

I went to the presentation last night. It was great! This is such a great opportunity and I'm so excited about the possibility of being a part of such an amazing program! My interview is on Monday around Noon. I can't wait!
